This post provides a summary of a number of issues that CViE have noted in the past month and follows on from the January 2018 update.

In this update, we have included information on the Science and Technology Committee’s inquiry into social media and young people’s health; concern over the shortage of religious education teachers; the influence of the transgender movement in school textbooks; and the House of Commons Library Briefing on home education.

The Department for Education issued, in December 2017, a document “Changes to the teaching of Sex and Relationship Education and PSHE - A call for evidence”. We urge Christians concerned for the safety and moral well being of children and young people to respond!
